The apostle Paul speaks of "revelations" from God in the following scripture: I Corinthians 14:26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. In a "revelation", God opens our eyes to see something. The first time this happened to me was over the following scripture. Matthew 24 3 And as HE (Jesus) sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. God explained it this way to me: Many would come saying I (Jesus) am Christ and because they say "Jesus is Lord" , Christians will listen to them and they will be able to deceive many. The first time I read this, I thought they were going to say they themselves were Christ. But if they did that, they would not be accepted in the church by most of the church. The other way, they will be able to deceive "many". *** Another revelation from the Spirit of God: This God explained to me in 1982 when I was reading the Bible. II Thessalonians 2:3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. God said to me: "It is not that people will fall away from the churches but rather the churches will fall away from scripture" *** Then in approximately 2017, God explained the following: II Thessalonians 2:6-7 NASB And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only HE who now restrains will do so until HE (The Word) is taken out of the way. The concept God gave me is this: That which "restrained" antichrist, keeping antichrist out of the churches, was the scripture. When they fell away from scriptures, the door was opened for antichrist to move into the churches. The WORD, Jesus was the restraint against antichrist. *** As a new Christian, God showed me the following: Matthew 16 13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, HE asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 HE saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. 18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. God explained this to me: Peter was blessed because it was God who revealed Jesus to him. And the rock is that word revealed by God. The gates of hell will not stand against that which God reveals to us. *** From the beginning of my time as being a Christian, God has shown Jesus to me as The Word. The Word is Jesus and Jesus is The Word. When I read Bible, "The Lord" is The Word. Psalm 23 1 The LORD (The Word) is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He (The Word) maketh me to lie down in green pastures: HE (The Word) leadeth me beside the still waters. (HE, The Word, causes me to go in the right direction. HE, The Word, leads me into the proper place. All I have to do is follow that which HE, The Word, tells me to do.) 3 HE (The Word) restoreth my soul: HE (The Word) leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. (His name's sake means: for the sake of The Word, HIS name.) *** Several years ago, as I was enroute to Albuquerque, New Mexico, just as the plane landed I heard from God, "Be baptized." My cousin, Church of Christ, picked me up at the airport. I said to her, "Jeanne, if you can arrange it, I will be baptized this afternoon before I return to Dallas." She was shocked, and said, "But you've already been baptized." I replied, "But I wasn't born again then. Now I am born again." (I don't think she understood what I was saying.) Several of my relatives had gathered at the church building that afternoon. The minister asked if I would like to say something. I replied, "I guess so." and I ...
